Electrical Safety AuditCreating a Roadmap for a Safer WorkplaceThe Martin Technical Electrical Safety Inspection Report focuses oninstallations and safe work practices at your site (s) based on the NationalElectrical Code, NFPA 70E, NFPA 70B, and OSHA 1910.331-335. This reportwill be conducted by a specialist who has a strong understanding of thesevarious standards/laws and who is field experienced in electrical plantenvironments. It is important to point out that that these standards and laws can,based on the official making the inspection, be subjective to interpretation andsite situation. Additionally, installations, practices and procedures changed,

modified or altered following the inspection. Thus, this inspection report will be a foundation in working towards

a safer workplace for your employees.

The report will focus on the following categories:o NEC Complianceo OSHA / NFPA 70E Arc Flash & Electrical Safety Complianceo Assured Equipment Groundingo Ground Fault Circuit Interruption Protectiono Lock Out / Tag Outo Qualified Electrical Worker Training

OBJECTIVES

Identify and provide corrective actions for potentially hazardous electrical situations Determine electrical system & electrical safety compliance with:

o National Electrical Codeo NFPA 70Eo NFPA 70Bo OSHA 1910.331-335

Review and provide corrective actions for electrical safety work processes Review and provide corrective actions for electrical maintenance tools Identify potential cost savings and efficiencies through modifications of electrical system

WORK PROCESS

Each site visit will entail an inspection of equipment and installations to identify items from the service point of your

buildings down through the feeder circuits to various branch circuits. Inspectors will be taking pictures.

Martin Technical will also examine and assess your personnel and workplace procedures. Thus, we willrequire all current record keeping on all electrical maintenance personnel down to the maintenance shops,their tools, meters, PPE, workplace standards, and maintenance record keeping and PM procedures.

The Inspection Report will itemize observations in which CFR or NFPA standards are not being met and thecorrective action. The criticality of the items will be ranked on a subjective scale of 1 to 5.
